Earlier this summer I helped put together a slideshow celebrating my younger brother James. Throughout the process I came across pictures of yours truly as a young child. I don't think I learned how to smile until I was five or six - half of the time my face is scrunched up in this weird grimace. My oddness is compounded by the fact that in most of the pictures I'm seated next to this adorable blonde cherub of a baby, James.
But there was this one great picture of us with an old rocking horse. Because this blog is about me (and not cherubic James) I cut him out of the picture. But now it's the picture heading for my blog. Just wanted to let you know!

So...Forgot to post once again!
So once again I let an unforgivable amount of time lapse between now and my last post. Perhaps unforgiveable is a strong and pretentious word to use. In any case, my apologies.
Classes are in full swing. And (surprise surprise!) I'm doing quite well in them! Most exciting class: international relations! I actually had a conversation about Aghanistan and General McCrystal (love that name!) the other day. Classes are keeping me busy though. Busy enough that I don't have much else to write right now.
Except that where did summer go? It's almost Halloween! It's weird to think of Halloween because my house gets no Trick or Treaters and James and I are, of course, too old to dress up anymore. We don't even carve pumpkins anymore! I used to obsess about my Halloween costume and pumpkins and going out with other neighborhood kids to Trick or Treat. The last time I went was my freshman year of high school. I was Sandy from Grease and, looking back, my friends and I were probably to old. I went to my first Halloween party that year, too, which was a bit more age appropriate. The friend who hosted it had an indoor pool which is, I guess, what I remember most.
Good times, huh?
